    I bought an old Speak and Spell a few summers ago as a circuit-bending project, and I want to build custom vocabulary ROMS. To this end, I have been working on a bitstream generator for the TMS5220, with the goal of being cross-platform, as the existing tools only run on Windows 3.0 and OSX…

    My first mistake was doing it in C++, although I love the language, since I’ve had the royal displeasure of trying to compile it for Windows. Over the next few weeks, I’m going to throw in the towel and re-write the damned thing in Java. That being said, if you’ve got a Mac or Linux machine, you can check it out here. And if you’ve got a clue how to compile a Qt app for Windows, please submit a PR :')
